Service

Hoverfly Cloud simulates HTTP services like web APIs and SOAP, providing API simulations, test doubles, and configurable HTTP stubs.

Last updated 3 months ago

Hoverfly Cloud services simulates real HTTP services such as web APIs and SOAP services. You can think of Hoverfly Cloud services as API simulations, over the wire test doubles, or more highly configurable HTTP stubs and mocks.

Hoverfly Cloud uses our Open Source tool, to simulate a service. Hoverfly Cloud uses Kubernetes to run and manage multiple copies of Hoverfly, and adds a powerful GUI with many additional capabilities
